Motorola/Oakley's O Rokr

Motorola's first collaboration with shades maker Oakley was the RazrWire, an inspired, though unsuccessful, attempt to integrate a Bluetooth headset into a pair of sunglasses. This year, with the O Rokr, the pair has added A2DP functionality, which means users can stream music to the shades from either a suitably equipped mobile or a music player. However, to get it working with your iPod, you'll need to spend £40 on an adaptor.

The jury is out on the shades, with their chunky wraparound style. I don't think they suited me. I teamed the shades with the Qtek 8500 Windows smartphone, an easy job, pressed play and then heard good-quality music playing through the small earphones. The shades also handled a voice call comfortably, with the music cutting out and the call coming through reasonably clearly. The main drawback is the tiny controls - three small buttons on either side of the frames. You can pause, fast forward or reverse tracks and change the volume, but the buttons are so small that you would probably take off the shades to do that. The best thing is that they work as billed. Whether you like the design and have £200 for them is another matter.
